How could a country girl like me
Become Your match — Your bride to be?
You're holy and You are divine
But I'm fallen and human.
Without You, Lord, I have no chance
To be like You in this romance.
But You chose me ere the world began
Nothing could change Your plan.

Is My heart's deep plan.
I became a lowly man

No man or angel ever knew
This secret hidden deep in You
That You desired to be one with man
Before the world began.
Though sin came in to ruin me
Through Satan's scheme and subtlety
Nothing could break Your love for me
To gain me totally.

As King of kings You became a man,
You died for me—I've been redeemed,
In resurrection made us queen
To marry You, my King.
From death You 'rose and entered me,
I now possess Your divinity;
In life and nature we're the same:
Both human and divine.
You died for me—I've been redeemed,
In resurrection made us queen
To marry You, my King.
From death You 'rose and entered me,
I now possess Your divinity;
In life and nature we're the same:

In Your love I'm drawn,
To You I belong;
I am not my own, Lord,
I'm Yours alone.
To You I belong;
I am not my own, Lord,
I'm Yours alone.
By Your love I'm drawn,
In Your name I'm charmed,
And Your Person captured me,
For I've been kissed by Thee.
In Your name I'm charmed,
And Your Person captured me,
For I've been kissed by Thee.

Lord, in this close sweet fellowship,
Lord, be with me so intimate,
So personal and affectionate;
A sweet relationship.
Lord, daily change my inward being
Lord, all my heart possessing
In all my being—transforming
To be Your bride and queen.

I like very much this song because God chose us before the foundation of the world began..Though we are fallen sinners He Himself redeemed us...Oh what a grace that He redeemed us...we, fallen sinners. Saved us..The time we are fallen He did not create another man to satisfy Himself, rather, He saved us and redeemed us and He reconciled us to the Father....Praise the Lord we are His SHULAMITE.....AMEN
Thank You for this romance. LORD JESUS we love You.

This very morning I feel the Lord's presence with this song. It really touches me and encourage me to more of Him. Though I'm so sinful but still He is always been there for me, loving me to the extent. "Lord, recover my First Love to you that every day I can feel You, every moment I can touch You and You can touch every fiber of my being". "LORD,JESUS I LOVE YOU". There's no one other like You.

Tonight" country="I have been typing an email where I was explaining to a young, seeking brother things and matters related to God's heart desire... I decided to quote this song in its entirety at the end of a lenghty presentation... When I started to type simultaneously listening to the tune something started to grow and expand within me and finally I just couldn't help but burst into tears of repentance and love to the Lord. I can say nothing but "Lord, I love you, I just love you so much..." This song has been giving me many moments like these in the past.
This song touches not only my heart, but I believe strongly, it touches God's heart as well... This song is a universal love story confined within few simple verses yet having the weight of the entire universe, conveying the content of God's eternal economy and the fulfillment of His, our dear Lord's heart desire... In these days when nothing seems certain, nothing seems to be sure - I have a strong and wonderful promise that nothing can change His love for me, to gain me, oh to gain me totally!!! Lord Jesus, come and claim Your Bride!

This song is very touching. It tells me that even though we are sinners, Christ pursues us to be His Bride. He died and rose to be life to us, so we may be the same as He, in life and nature, but not in the Godhead. Amen! We must all pursue Christ.
